Review on πŸ‘Š Effortlessly Punch and Seal with Fiskars X-Large Squeeze Punch with Seal of Approval by Kelsey Brown

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It works, but here are some tweaks to make it work better.

This punch required some experimentation with different papers to get reasonably stable good punches. Thick paper, such as printer or copier paper, works well. (I only ever cut 2 layers at a time) 2) Thin paper like origami paper requires a backing sheet behind the thin paper. For example: the bottom layer is printer paper and the top layer is origami paper. Sometimes 2 sheets of origami paper are enough. 3) Very thin paper like rice paper needs 3 layers. The bottom layer is printer paper, the middle layer is rice paper, and the top layer is another sheet of printer paper. An alternative is to Gluing rice paper to a thin backing sheet to make it stiffer. 4) Thin aluminum foils like San Pellagrino lemonade can ends require a backing. See 2) above* When I encounter irregular or incomplete cuts, I have found that it helps to line everything up in the paper punch and then squeeze the handles with my right hand and pinch or press the leading edge with my left hand (above ). edge - in the photo of the product). This seems to help align the stamp and frame so the cut is cleaner. I have not tried the hole punch in the photos. Hope that helps. I have found that it helps aligning everything in the paper punch and then squeezing the handles with my right hand and pinching or pinching the front edge with my left hand (top edge is in the product photo).
